In the News

I don't watch the news except to watch the weather. I hear snippets of news going on around Wisconsin. For instance: There's a three-year-old boy that's been missing for five weeks now. There are a lot of people looking for him. The mother and boyfriend are in jail for neglect. A couple of days ago I heard the worst news imaginable. A mother put her baby in a playpen and left on vacation for ten days. When she got home her baby was dead from dehydration and starvation. I hope she gets the death penalty. I hope Wisconsin has the death penalty. When I hear news like this, I look for news about people who are good, kind, and go out of their way to help others. Like those looking for Elijah Vue, missing for three weeks. I need good news stories every day and I am thankful for @deepizzaguy for providing a ray of sunshine in a world void of decency. Below is a link to the news story about Elijah Vue.
As the search for Elijah Vue enters its fifth week, we're learning more about the cost of trying to bring the missing little boy home.

Left a kid and went on vacation? Could severe mental illness be involved?

She claimed depression. She's in prison for life without parole.

I'm also thankful for @deepizzaguy for sharing positive news of acts of kindness. That mother that left her baby for 10 days should be jailed for life.

I can only imagine the pain and agony that little girl went through waiting for her mother to return. I have not followed the Elijah Vue case very closely. Did he wander off or is there a suspect in his disappearance?

@just4him I just read that they found his blanket somewhere. It does not look good to me.

@akalinus I agree. It becomes bleaker for him with every day that passes.

They suspect a kidnapping. If he had just wandered off, they would have found him long before now.

I read about those and it's so heartwrenching. Can you imagine the pain those children endured? The POS woman had the gall to claim depression and other mental excuses that made her not think right. BS she left on that trip. How horrendous. They found the blanket for the little boy so it's not looking good.

@just4him She had family that would have taken her too. They need to put her in the regular area and not protection. You know those women in there will not tolerate her.

Yes, it is heart-wrenching. I totally agree. She was heartless to just leave and go on vacation like that. There's still hope the little boy will be found.

You found the story about the woman who left her baby and went on vacation? I didn't see it when I pulled up the news stories. I'm glad she did. Or is it Elijah's mother? Yeah, she needs a life sentence too.

The woman should be put in a cell for 10 days without food or water. That's horrible.

@just4him Cleveland is just about 30-40 miles from here. I'm glad she got life.

That is just awful. How could a mother leave her child for ten days? Surely she can't be right in the head.

I can't imagine someone ever having the idea to do that to their child. Wow is all I can say, and not the good kind.

That is such a sad and infuriating story! I pray that they find little Elijah safe and that he or his sister never have to see those evil people again!

He won't. He'll be in the care of his grandmother or Aunt if and when they find him.
